Comments and Pictures from our event in Washington State last year.

Dearest Breezy and Patsy, I want to thank you for such an exciting Private Reserve weekend. I had a wonderful time and learned so much. Your family is awesome...so helpful and comforting. Michelle? What can I say..she is..well...Michelle...keeps things fun and interesting!Joy and all the rest of the staff plus volunteers...what an incredible group of people..I can honestly say, that as tired and worked as everyone was, I never found any of them in a bad mood, nor in a rush when helping any of us.Thank you...looking foward to another time together.

"It was such a good time. Everything was so well organized and done with class. The projects were so good. I loved making a whole album in one day.... well, most of the pages are done. I just have to finish a couple and add my pictures. The classes were fast, but well run with assistants walking around with the sample so one could see up close just what was done. Also there were overhead projectors so you could always see what was going on. The teachers were great and a lot of fun to be with. Patsy taught our album class and I really enjoyed it. I learned a whole new different style of scrapbooking. If you ever get the chance... go to one of these."

I had a GREAT TIME in Houston, it was great to see many of my friends and get to know some new ones. We went to a baseball game on Thursday evening after set up, it was AWESOME!

The stadium was beautiful and the convention center is really nice and I truly enjoyed the long walk down the hall to the classroom every day. I flew home early on Sunday and spent the afternoon with the family and then went on a "Date" with my hubby. We went to a local place called "Colorado Fondue" and it is similar to the melting pot except that you cook your food on a hot rock rather than broth. YUMMO! Today, I had a tooth pulled so it was a pretty non productive day. I have some scrapping to get done tomorrow, I am making a trip to The Crop Shoppe in Jacksonville Florida and plan on getting some new goodies to play with. They have a trash to treasure sale (used scrapbooking sale) where if you sell items you get store credit and I currently have $80 credit to be used...I am thinking about getting some adhesives and maybe a few dies....who knows what else but I am very excited to do some "free" shopping!

Houston, we have braces. Teal braces at that. They look good, and even match her glasses. We each got to take our pics with her...

I think I have recovered from the trip out west...I am back in my time zone, only to leave again on Thursday and head to Houston. I had a great time in Mesa. It was a CK convention and at those, we sponsor a game at the crop. The game involves lots of vendors and in return for "winning" the prize, the crop table makes a thank you card for the sponsor. Normally, the cards we receive are posted and kept on the inside door of our pod, but this week, The card came home with me, and is going to be put on the wall in my scrap room. The card made me cry. Yep, that's right, cry. SO SWEET!! Here it is...

and the inside...

and let me just tell you that the photo was taken that night, as I was leaving the crop for the night. Thank you ladies, it was a great weekend seeing you again and when I come back next year I will be sure to bring a watch for some of you!!! J/K.

I am super exhausted from a long weekend of work, but I wanted to drop in real quick and say THANKS to all the students this weekend in Mesa. I had a great time seeing students from previous years and meeting some new ones. I am looking forward to coming back in November for our PRIVATE RESERVE EDUCATIONAL EVENT we are having in Carefree Arizona! I will be back in a day or two to share some photos from the weekend, but for now I will leave you with a layout I completed before I left for the weekend based on a sketch from 52 sketches 52 weeks...

Now that Easter is over and April is half way done, the travel really begins. I will be on the road the next two weeks, home for one and then working for the rest of May and the first week in June....I am excited about the challenge of eating healthy and exercising while on the road. Yeah right. Here is a pictoral easter recap for you....

We had a great time in South Carolina and miss it already. We completely disconnect while we are there. I took a ton of pics and have lots of new scrapping material from Quick Quotes, looking forward to putting them together!
